Thanks for having me, Girjan.

I'm super excited about having the conversation.

Excellent.

You know, I think over...

call it a decade view out, it is some of the regulation that has the most potential to change healthcare.

And so we're super excited about being involved in it from the start.

And I say start because it was really just a couple of years ago that the regulations got announced first for hospitals, health systems, the provider side, and then for the payer side around price transparency.

I get

really excited as you think about the world of consumer engagement.

And as you think about how payers and providers can use this information to take cost and complexity out of the system, I think there's just a lot of opportunity for us to drive.

Yeah, so let me drill down on the two areas a little bit more.

Think about first this consumer empowerment side.

What it allows is really for us to be able to shop for healthcare, just like we shop for pretty much everything else in our lives.

So think about the notion of, okay, you need to go have your ACL repaired.

It unlocks the ability for now for you before you get that care to go in and understand within your healthcare plan design,

the cost of the procedure.

And what we're really pushing to advance is not just what the raw data is, so not just a specific provider

a specific code, but to roll all of that information into one.

So to say, to go get this episode of care, here's what we estimate it will cost.

And then what we're also evolving is bringing in other data that is out there in the field.
